This is the first Korean novel I have read and I'm really impressed. I love the concept behind the story in which one of the strongest humans returns to the past in order to save humanity. The world the author has created is really interesting and the MC is entertaining to read about. The only flaw for me is the author's writing style. It's very chaotic and sometimes seems to skip over details, which makes it a confusing read at times. However, I highly recommend giving this novel a try.

I like how he's OP and all since he had knowledge from the past and the quote "knowledge is power" is used at its full potential ... more>>

Spoiler

(though most of his knowledge were imparted to him since his reincarnation is somewhat planned)

[collapse]

I love this story and all but it just somehow rubs me the wrong way when he is so damn selfless. Sure he doesn't save all the people around him but he doesn't really rest either, there some instances that says "now, I rest for 3 days" but that's it. Nothing that says he enjoyed, took a bath, ate delicious food or even masterb*tes.

It's also good that he's already strong after he goes from different stages/realms/colors or whatever you call it but he's always alone. He BLACKMAILS people into helping him but after he's done, leaves them for their own good. It's and all but when that happens ALL THE TIME, it kinda gets boring.

Though I have some minor issues about this novel, I'll still give it 5 since the story itself is good but it's not the best I've seen. <<less

This is my favorite novel I am reading so far. The story starts off perhaps in a little bit of a confusing manner, but it gets awesome pretty damn quickly. The grammar of the translations is good, and I quickly found myself binge reading this novel. Over the course of 4 days I got a total of 9 hours sleep because I was so captivated by this book. The mc's mentality just amazes me ... more>>

Spoiler

as he is willing to be wounded by monsters so that he can kill them more quickly. Or his method of dealing with stronger enemies where he barely even bothers to dodge so that he can deliver a fatal strike while receiving only a near fatal wound.

No character that are s*upid in this story, they all try to survive. The bad character in this story will not just be there just to be a stepping stone for the MC, they have their live and objective (like saving their children). There will not be a generic bad character because they will die, like in the real life where figth for your life (No long combat against antagonist for year Ex:Naruto->Orochi, StarWars->Darth Sidious)

Epic story

But not clear with certain point like: Dark Mad Lord, Light Monarch and Mad... more>> Monarch. (Still not clear as to who is who)

Edit: Clementine / Mad Monarch / Light Monarch / Kwang Goonju / Gwang Goonju is the same person but had an error on the translation. <<less

Amazing novel. The protagonist is always calm and decisive. He does what's needed to be done, not someone who hesitates in killing.

Protagonist has advantages, but it doesn't feels like cheat, you can feel him struggling.

Recommended for those for loner strong protagonist.

This is a super wonderful story.

Every characters have their motive in mind and act according to that.

Of cause our MC has it too and for that he aim to be OP and really he look so cool!! The MC is mature too. He is not piss easily but when someone cross the line, he will be ruthless. So I can say he is pretty balance. He is not a nice guy and he also not a bastard either.

But the MC is a loner type so every character will come and... more>> go if not they will become his enemy and being deleted out. LoL!

So it pretty simillar to xianxia but it have more dept and fun than that.

Becuase in this there are deception and unknow relationship too so it more like we read some politic novel with the new kind of setting.

It remind me of both HunterXHunter and some politic china sometime.

The only down fall is that some fighting scene is left out with time skip from the author.

Sometime when I click next button and find this kind of time skip, it make me wonder did I just skip some chapter! This happen to me two or three time in this novel.

But as for me I sometime skip uninterest fighting scene in other novel too so I did not reduce any star for this. &Gt;w<

For a side note: I write this reveiw when I reach chapter 56 <<less

Story resembles GADW but this one has the element of time travel...
God is bored so he decided to create a alternative world where humans are killed like wheat on the fields during harvesting season. And here comes our MC, who time travelled from the future to prevent the demise of humans... With his knowledge and experiences from the future, he tries to deviate the path that leads to the extinction of the human race that force him to travel back to the past..
Story is interesting with some game like elements (quest, monsters, skills). Translation is good, MC is calm and calculative who always weigh pros and cons and doesn't kill anyone who provokes him... Highly recommended..

Top 5 novel. Badass MC, story line is consistent, enemies with a deep background, side characters get an appropriate amount of development, idiotic/stale humor is avoided, fairly unique story, some parts of it are quite similar to Gantz.

I've been reading so many Xianxia novels lately, that I couldn't find anything else interesting. It was then that I decided to give Korean novels a shot once more (aside from ARK and LMS). And wow.. Just wow! The story is so well thought out. At first, I was afraid that it'd be some crappy ass novel, but the MC is quite decent. The story pace is quite good too. I can't wait for now chapters and I'd definitely recommend this to other people as well ;).

this novel reminds me of god and devil world.. So that means I love it.. Apocalypse/fantasy/game and it seems dark too.. Im hooked

This is a surprisingly enjoyable read.

I was a bit apprehensive about this novel, but as it went on, it became kinda good. The MC is surprisingly genre savvy with his observations. The world building is interesting as well, as the author slowly teases out the back story and ‘future’ events. As of Chapter 09, the only drawback that I can see is the flat side characters. Edited to add, as off chapter 12, the side characters are no longer flat but are developing into more stereotypical roles. Hopefully, the development continues and the side characters find their own ‘voices’. Also, another thing i’m pretty iffy about is

Seriously, give this novel a try, the world building is interesting.

It's complete peak until the second part. Everything was going great until the second part started. I wanna forget that the second part ever existed...

Anyways, world building is at or above one piece level, that should tell you enough about it for you to read it.

Ending of the first part was one of the greatest highs I had in a while. The twist at the end was just mind blowing.

Read if you want a gritty story wherein the side characters all die at some point except for the most annoying... more>> one. (Mihee should have been killed off in like, chapter 10 imo). <<less

After reading the entire story, which doesn't stop at 144ch novel updates just doesn't have the other translated site, I can say reincarnator is within the top five novels I've read. While it does come back on the time travel trope it also changes it around has the MC had more than just himself to worry about, and oddly deviates from the synopsis but for good reason. One theme that you see throughout the story is that there is never down time never a break given to the MC after... more>> all he does

Spoiler

the MC is even called a machine in the green zone mudella after she sees his memories and what he has done, that a person could not do what he has done without breaking and that something must be wrong with him, then it is revealed that his friends who sent him back altered his memories to help push forward their goal

[collapse]

this theme continues forever and, whether intentionally or not, Is even reflected in the writing style where it changes based on the MC growth personality wise throughout the story, never giving much time on what happens between fights but focusing heavily on what happens to reach his goal. All in all it is hard to put into words what I like about this story and I emplore you to read it for yourselves <<less

Seriously, WTF!!! I know that I love this kind of story, but still! Almost every. single. character. in this novel has sh*ty personality. I feel like puking with how much the keep saying the same thing like, "how dare something/someone/a puny thing like you..." or "no will ever defeat me..." or worst, "you should be thankful that I let all of you/you live at all... (even though I keep messing with your lives on dauly basis just for fun) " UGH!!! No wonder I keep wanting to just stop reading... more>> but still read away 'cause I want to know the ending. 😢😭😭😭 <<less

I like it so much. The way his personality changed after his memory came back was good and it justified his previous simp actions.

A novel with good potential was ruined by tr*sh writing skills.

Novel feels like a chore to read most of the time.

Generally all korean novels feel a bit like a chore to read. The writing style is very bad compared to other countries.

... more>> Still this one even amongst K novels is one of the worst.

Also the character of the MC is the classic cool Korean type, who barely talks out loud, and only thinks in his head. The guy who is OP and badass and doesnt give a f*ck about anything, but in reality its just one more boring Korean MC. The only reason to write MC's like this type, is because they are the easiest MC's to write... Every amateur can write a MC like this, and im pretty sure the reason this type of MC is popular is exactly this. Just because its easy!!! <<less

A novel with one of the most unique concepts out there. I mean some of the stages are just too different and fresh from any other novel I've read. The quality drops in the later chapters when the MC becomes too OP, but that's the case with every novel. Still, I would rate it 5 stars just because of the uniqueness and the enjoyment I got while reading it.

I had high hopes in the start because the idea of the plot was quite good but the author way of storytelling and some parts are frustrating like

1. Too many dialogues for side characters who we won't see after half a chapter

2. There are waaay too many plot twists and things that made me mad about like how the author tries to keep bad guys alive as much as possible and how he keep getting MC in unneeded situations like how he make most people MC meet fck him up... more>> with many ways such as telling information about him or betraying him

The story would have been much more enjoyable if author didn't waste time on useless details such as the useless dialogues and instead used that time and effort in Better places like the last dungeon in the tower <<less

A true masterpiece. This is not on the level of Dragon Marked War God, Emperor Domination or Warlock of the Magus World but this still remains one of the best LN I have read.

The big problem is that clearly the author was more motivated during the first few zones, you can tell he has gotten tired halfway through.

He still managed to make everything make sense and not feel that rushed, it is too bad he completely stopped caring about his characters near the ending.

Still this is definitely something very special... more>> with all kind of cool ideas and how different the zones are all from each others.

This is not your boring ass LN where the MC giggles with his s*upid harem and everybody talks for years and boring sh*t happens.

This is NON stop action, the MC is speedrunning that sh*t and he barely stops to talk to people for the job and then he goes right back at running that shit. This is none of that NAKAMA sh*t that plagues boring LN, human nature is very well portrayed, most people are out for themselves and even enjoys seeing other people struggle and die horribly AS LONG as it does not touch them or their friends.

There is two mind blowing PLOT TWISTS and big things happen during this but it is all well written despite feeling rushed at time. Introduced a lot of characters for them to disappear or for them to not be used very much.

Like the guy spend what feels like YEARs in the red zones and suddenly boom the latter zones he speed runs through them... Then again it is normal because he started weaker but got OP real fast. <<less

A wild ride! Good novel, had a lot of fun reading it. MC was OP, but the challenges he faced were also extremely hard, balancing it out. I liked that he always used whatever help he could get. He worked together. The end was plottwist after plottwist, really good.
